The Takara Morlatta War Cruisers were produced to provide the fleet with a suitable flagship or fleet command craft that would be capable of taking on the best warships of both the Klingon and Federation governments. Very well armed, the Takara Morlatta War Cruiser also benefits from reinforced shielding, increasing its survivability in a fight. The Takara is structurally weaker than a Vas’Deletham Heavy Cruiser, but the improved shielding makes up for this failing.

The Takara Morlattas served their intended purpose with distinction, acting as the central command nexus for Romulan border fleets. Their survivability and raw firepower was demonstrably better than their alien counterparts.
